With the winter quarter at Dartmouth wrapping up and those cold, dark mornings of football conditioning winding down, Spencer Brown, the Big Green's strength and conditioning coach Tweeted this out:
Congrats to THE HULK @nhoward_17. This is voted on by his teammates for best exemplifying what @dartmouth_football is. This guy works, competes, pushes himself, makes the other people around him better, and is a pleasure to coach. #thewoods #thehulk #characterwins pic.twitter.com/GcmPkBUnif

Howard, of course, bulled his way for 787 yards and 15 touchdowns on the ground in addition to completing 11-of-18 passes for 126 yards and one touchdown while helping the Big Green win the Ivy League title last fall. The 6-foot-2, 230-pounder from Green Bay was rewarded with a spot on the All-Ivy League first team, where he split quarterback honors with Brown's EJ Perry.

Back to Brown quarterback EJ Perry. In addition to finishing second among QBs in the 40 at the NFL Combine, he was first in the group in the 20-yard shuttle and the 3-cone drill. He was runnerup in the broad jump and the vertical jump.

It's the weekend and you've got time. There are at least a couple of Ivy League schools that get a mention in a posting headlined, Can you answer these real ‘Jeopardy!’ clues about your state? It's fun to look up the state where you were born, the state where you lived and the state where you went to college. (LINK)

EXTRA POINT
Mrs. BGA and I posted up in front of the TV last night and watched all three-plus hours of the 1965 movie Dr. Zhivago. Given the headlines these days, the scenes of burned out villages, of cruelty, throngs of refugees and Russian accents made the film as haunting as the beautiful Lara's Theme score.
